Gov. Chris Christie called legislative Democrats pickpockets in a display of confrontational rhetoric Tuesday that was not without contortions.

"When they say they only want to raise taxes on some people, keep your hand on your wallet, because they're coming for you next," the Republican governor warned a friendly audience of 350 at the Blue Barn in Evesham. "I guarantee I am the only thing left standing between them and your wallet."
